Today

I spent a lot of time over the last two days shuttling back-and-forth between home, doctors’ offices, and pharmacies. Both of the kids tested positive for strep. My husband and I tested negative but were prescribed meds anyway, just to be safe. It took seven trips to the pharmacy to get all the necessary meds, thanks in part to ongoing staffing problems at the local CVSs (they’re always short-handed, and have been for years). I am exhausted and feeling on the verge of getting sick again. I need to rest today.
